CSUN Noyce
CSUN has been funded by the National Science Foundation Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program to encourage talented science, technology, engineering, and mathematics majors and professionals to become K-12 mathematics and science teachers.
The CSUN Noyce Program Provides:
Noyce Scholarships. A small number of future teachers will be provided with a scholarship of up to $7500 per semester. Noyce Scholars commit to teach in a high need public school for 1 year for each semester of support (up to 6 semesters).
Noyce Internships. Undergraduates who are not yet committed to teaching are invited to be Noyce Interns and participate in all Noyce activities. Interns receive $1000 per semester of participation.
Lesson Study. Noyce Scholars who are in the credential program can participate in lesson study activities for additional stipend.
Monthly Future Teacher Meetings. We meet to discuss current issues and best practices with Noyce alumnae teachers.
STEM Events. Noyce Scholars work with local students on activities such as Pi Day, Earth Day, Science Fairs and others.
Conference Attendance. Noyce Scholars and interns can be funded to attend professional conferences.
Eligibility Criteria & Application Process
Scholarships will be awarded to the most qualified applicants on the basis of academic merit. Consideration will also be given to financial need, persons with disabilities, and the need to increase the numbers of women and minorities in mathematics and science careers. Applicants must be willing to sign a detailed, legally appropriate payback agreement in the event that they do not complete their teaching obligation.
Noyce Scholar & Intern Application Form
"I view teaching as a means of giving back to my community by guiding students towards the path of higher education. Coming from the underrepresented community of Oxnard CA, I’ve witnessed the high demand for teachers who are looking to make an impact. For those reasons I hope to move back to my hometown and teaching the next generations to come. I hope to steer them towards higher education, and make a lasting impact in my community."
